When selecting the custom motion detection zone on my V3, objects moving outside of the selected squares still trigger an alert/event recording. Anybody else having this issue? Wyze Cam v3 Firmware 4.36.1.4 / Latest iOS App Version

It seems completely broken and the implementation on the v2 camera also appears to be the same. I thought …

yes the same been going on for months software upgrades haven’t made a different I mean its simple, so I know I’m not doing anything wrong: simply darken out the area you don’t want to check for motion. anything that move in that area SHOULD NOT trigger a motion alarm…right? N O T !!!
